I completed my Ph.D. in marketing at Monash University in 2020. My research focuses on the connections between consumption, sociology, and politics. I have studied how complex institutional forces lead to distinctive markets, such as the reproductive tourism market in China and Japan. In addition, I am interested in the political aspects of consumption and how it motivates consumers to engage in political behavior in the marketplace. I have used a variety of research methods, including interviews, netnography, projective techniques, and institutional data analysis.

​

Prior to joining Kyoto University, I served as a lecturer at Monash University's Malaysian campus. During my time at Monash, I taught marketing courses from Undergraduate Year 1 to Masters level.

I am proficient in three languages: English, Chinese, and Taiwanese, and possess an intermediate level of Japanese proficiency. I also picked up some basic Malay language during my stay in Malaysia!
